{"product_id":"antique-english-coopered-treen-jar-barrel-form-circa-1880","title":"Antique English Coopered Treen Jar, Barrel Form, Circa 1880","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eA small coopered treen jar built in the late 19th century from alternating staves of light and dark hardwood. The form copies a wine cask in miniature, with turned reeded bands at the top and bottom imitating the iron hoops on a real barrel. Coopering at this scale is a workshop flex, twelve separate staves cut and fitted by hand, alternating wood tones so the contrast reads from across a room. The piece is sold as a decorative vessel without its original lid. At five inches across, it sits well on a desk, a bar cart, an entry console, or a bookshelf, and it holds keys, pens, cocktail picks, or whatever you'd like to drop into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e[d]Type | Coopered treen jar\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e[d]Material | Alternating light and dark hardwood staves\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e[d]Origin | England, sourced in England\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e[d]Age | Circa 1880, late 19th century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e[d]Style | Coopered treen, barrel form\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e[d]Size | 5 in diameter x 6 in height\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e[d]Construction | Twelve staves with turned reeded ring bands top and bottom, solid plank base disc\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e[d]Use | Decorative vessel, sold without lid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e[condition]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eHonest antique condition with age-appropriate wear consistent with a piece roughly 140 years old. The body is solid and stands cleanly on its own. The original lid is not present, and the interior shows a regular pattern of small tack marks across the base where a fabric or sheet-metal liner was once fitted. The interior staves have a darker tone, likely from age and original finish. There is one vertical stave split on the body that runs through the lower turned ring band, where a dark stave has separated slightly from the adjacent light stave. The split is stable and not progressing. The base disc is sound. The exterior has a warm patina with good color contrast across the alternating staves. Surface wear, light scuffs, and minor rim wear are present throughout. Sold as a decorative vessel for everyday objects, not as a working sealed container.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Austyn Marie Design","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51316198768918,"sku":"AMD-03045","price":230.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/4623\/5926\/files\/EnglandCrates-1839.jpg?v=1778964979","url":"https:\/\/austyn-marie-design.myshopify.com\/products\/antique-english-coopered-treen-jar-barrel-form-circa-1880","provider":"Austyn Marie Design","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
